Yep - Not so torque'y the 16 valve! - Dunno what it was at the fly though mate... (I work it out to possibly*around* 382 with say, an 18% transmission loss (could be more, could be less) )

My old 8-valve that Gripo bought made lotsa torque (though I think it was only 284lbs/ft as it stood - That's a healthy amount more you've got!), so I know they're good engines, but that's an impressive figure you've got mate.

I can't be running much more, though with the new tubbie, it could be even less between us...
